In the winter, my father would use an electric heater to save propane. He drilled a hole in the back of his electrical storage compartment and ran a heavy duty extension cord inside to the heater. He always used the 30 amp receptacle so the 120 volt receptacle was free to use for this. He never had any problems.
I am glad you heeded my concern about using propane in an enclosed space. Funny enough, I have the same single burner that you do but I mostly use it to perc coffee and heat up soups and stews that I make ahead of time (sometimes) and haven't tried a steak on it. I have an outside propane grill that cooks steaks and chicken or burgers/ hot dogs beautifully unless it is really raining, then no one is happy. Your cooking skills far outdo anything I have done; I bow to the master. Good job on making the most out of a single burner. The outlets in most trailers are usually on a 15A circuit so trying to use a hot plate and heater at the same time, that requires probably 20 to 30A to operate and will trip the breaker every time. As someone else said, you can run an extension cord out the window or door to run one of them if they have to be on at the same time. If you don't want that, you can shut the heater off when the burner is on as the hot plate will also warm up the trailer. I hope this helps and you are doing great!
I feel like you made this video specifically for me lol. I asked you about cooking without propane on your last video and now you've done a complete video on the subject. I also eat my ribeyes medium rare. You cooked that steak to perfection, btw. Now I want to buy that hot plate lol. You sold me!! Great job as always Stephanie!!
Well done Stephanie, and yes the trailer is only good for about 15amps before it trips, we have an all powers battery box @100amps, good for coffee and toast in the morning without tripping a breaker, Amazon had a Bluetti sale on a while ago. I love your video's, Richard in the north, Canada.
Great Job on the steak and veggies. I would go the hot plate route but already have a portable induction plate I bought used on eBay. Same thing I guess in the long run? I have a heater that looks about the same as yours. It has a remote so I can turn it on from bed, set the temperature I want and set a timer so it will shut of in a half hour, or maintain the set temp if I want to leave it running.
Stephanie, your cooking is pure perfection. Med. rare steak & yolky eggs all in the coveted cast iron skillet. Thank you for sharing this uplifting video they always make me feel good. Wishing you a Blessed Christmas and safe, prosperous & exciting 2025.
I always enjoy the positive thought for the day, thank you for that. I do like that cast iron hot plate, nice when everything is a perfect fit. It'll work for both boondocking and, when you're out and hooked up to power too!

Thank you so much 😊 and Merry Christmas!! 🎄
The vegetables looked great! Does the avocado oil smoke up your camper?
The camper can smoke up with any frying but if the fan is on it’s not too bad ☀️

Yes! It’s gonna be a game changer ☀️
